Blackburn Firebrand TF Mk.V 827 Squadron (Plastic model) - HobbySearch Military Model Store

This item is limited to 3 per household.

-It is a shipboard fighter that has been developed since 1939 as a successor to the Fulmar shipboard fighter.
-Initially equipped with a liquid-cooled Saber engine, but since it preferentially supplies Saber to the Typhoon, it is equipped with an air-cooled Centurus.
-However, due to the change in engine installation, the aircraft had to be redesigned, and since Seafire was already deployed as a ship fighter, Firebrand became a torpedo fighter equipped with a torpedo.
-By the time the refurbishment was over and production began, the war had already ended.
-Type 5 is a type in which the engine is changed from the completed type IV to the strengthened type, and more than 60 aircraft were produced and operated until 1953.
-827 Squadron operated the Firefly during the war and operated the Firebrand on the aircraft carrier Eagle from 1950 until 1952.

-Vacuum canopy, resin parts, 2 types of British Navy decals included
